Choi Yena raised brows for her new song "Hate Rodrigo" MV concept and lyrics, which seems to snipe at the international singer. Jigumis immediately jumped to the former IZ*ONE member's defense and clarified the misunderstanding.
Jealous of Olivia? Choi Yena Explains Meaning of 'Hate Rodrigo'
On July 27, YENA (Choi Yena) finally made her comeback with her second single album, "HATE XX," featuring the title track, "Hate Rodrigo." The soloist held a comeback showcase for the new release, hosted Jaejae, and talked about the album.
Following this negative feedback, Jigumis (Yena's fandom) immediately defended the idol and explained the concept comprehensively.
- "This... If you watch the music video, it's just about Rodrigo being too pretty! It's a fan girl concept that put up Rodrigo's poster in the room, and Rodrigo is a hot pop star who is getting a lot of attention as #1 on Billboard, so Yena thinks she looks good enough and she thinks she can be her role model.
- "If Yena is imitating Rodrigo, she would have rather released it with the concept of being broken up like Rodrigo's representative songs, but Yena doesn't have any of that content.
- "It just reveals it's an homage right away, and the content is super simple and shouts out that (Olivia) is so good. Yena likes her so much, so I hope you don't hate it too much."
